Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace: Spring in the Palace

"Thank you, Eunuch Jinzhong. My mother is definitely saved." The young eunuch kept thanking him and happily took the gold.

When he weighed it in his hand, it weighed almost three taels, almost equivalent to thirty taels of silver, which was equivalent to more than a year's expenses for ordinary people.

"Eunuch Jinzhong, I will never forget your kindness." The young eunuch's face was excited. He did not cry when he was beaten just now, but now tears are on his face again.

"You can no longer stay in Yiku Palace. This eunuch will find a new job for you." Jinzhong stood aside with his arms folded, thinking about where to place this person.

"It would be fine if Concubine Xian was punished all the time, and the servants couldn't live like human beings because of it. But Concubine Xian was often fined. Once she was fined, the servants would not receive their monthly wages." The young eunuch's words were filled with resentment.

"The Ministry of Internal Affairs bullies people by taking advantage of their power and often underpays salaries. If it weren't for this, my mother's illness would never have become so serious."

The young eunuch wiped his tears with his sleeves. This time Jinzhong really helped him a lot. As long as he left the Yikun Palace, he would not be deducted no matter where he was.

"Okay, go ahead, but don't let anyone see us." Jinzhong didn't have any polite thoughts. It was a simple matter to arrange for a little eunuch to go somewhere to work.

*Yanxi Palace

Hai Lan was reading a book with the fifth prince Yong Qi. Ye Xin hurried in and saw the harmonious scene between the mother and son. She hesitated whether to say anything.

"Ye Xin, what's wrong?" Hai Lan noticed that her expression was not right, so she put down the book and asked.

"Master, someone framed Concubine Xian for telling Concubine Jia about Prince Yu. The Emperor has already put Concubine Xian under house arrest." Ye Xin realized that Hai Lan was concerned about Ruyi, so he finally told her.

This would surely make their master worry about Concubine Xian again.

"Sister is definitely not such a person. No, I have to go find the emperor." Hai Lan suddenly became anxious and immediately stood up and was about to go to the Yangxin Palace.

Seeing his mother so anxious, the Fifth Prince also became a little nervous, but he still tried to comfort her, telling her not to be so anxious, as haste would only lead to chaos.

"Mother, please don't be too anxious. Mother Xian has been under house arrest. We should first find out who framed her and clear her name."

"Yes, my dear. The Queen is accompanying the Emperor right now. I'm afraid you can't go." Ye Xin also advised Hai Lan not to be too reckless.

"Queen?" Hai Lan's dark eyes stared at a corner of the Yanxi Palace. She seemed to relax and sat back on the couch, starting to speculate.

The Queen has been jealous of her sister for a long time. I'm afraid she wants to take this opportunity to kill two birds with one stone and eliminate the two favored concubines in the harem.

What a good plan, what a good plan. My sister was under house arrest, and the queen happened to be with her, so I got the upper hand.

Hai Lan felt like there were millions of ants gnawing at her heart. She wished she was the one being grounded, and she didn't want her sister to suffer such an injustice.

*At the entrance of Yikun Palace

Hai Lan stood outside and looked at the guards standing in front of the door, one of whom was Ling Yunche.

The emperor asked Li Yu to escort Concubine Xian back to the palace, so Li Yu selected Ling Yunche and several other nearby guards to escort Concubine Xian together.

"It's you?" Hailan raised her eyebrows slightly and asked, "Why are you here?"

Ling Yunche saluted Hai Lan and replied, "Eunuch Li Yu asked me and several other guards to come here to guard the Yikun Palace."

"Please help me pass the message to my sister. She must be very sad because she was suddenly confined to her room." Hai Lan looked at Ling Yunche and said firmly.

"Just tell your sister not to worry, everything will be fine."

After Hai Lan finished speaking, Ling Yunche nodded and said, "Yes, Concubine Yu, I will find a way to inform Concubine Xian."

"Please go back, Concubine Yu. The Emperor has issued a clear order to confine Concubine Xian. It is not convenient for anyone to stay nearby at this time." Ling Yunche added.

*Hai Lan was anxiously trying to find out the truth, but found nothing.

So the blame can only be put on the innocent Concubine Xian.

However, all the concubines in the palace knew that Concubine Xian was innocent because she was not such a person.

But there was no evidence at all, and Concubine Jia was happy to put the blame on Concubine Xian.

At least the child was safe, and she got the result she wanted, which was to save the prince's life.

It would be a pleasant surprise if Ruyi could be punished a little more.

When the emperor went to see Concubine Jia, he noticed that she was a little depressed and not as bright as she was a few days ago, and he felt a little distressed.

When I thought that although Concubine Jia was fine, she was still very uncomfortable for a while, I also thought about how hard it was for her because she was pregnant.

But in the emperor's heart, Ruyi is more important after all and has a unique status.

He thought that the Jinchuan war was important and hoped that everyone in the harem could pray for the war together, so Ruyi could not be missing.

Moreover, he knew very well that this was definitely not done by Ruyi, but there were trivial matters in the court and the harem recently, and it was not appropriate to make a big fuss just for a small matter.

For now, Ruyi can only bear this injustice.

The Emperor wanted to lift the ban on Ruyi, but on the other hand, Concubine Jia was dissatisfied with Concubine Xian's deliberate anger on her, but only confined her for three days, and then she wiped her tears beside him.

So the emperor's decree was changed to that Concubine Xian failed to discipline her servants, and was punished by being ordered to pray for the Jinchuan war to increase her merits, and also being fined one month's salary.

When she was released from house arrest some time ago, the emperor gave Ruyi many rewards. I think even if she lost her salary, it would not affect her.

The reason why the salaries of the palace servants in Yikun Palace were not fined was because Ruyi was soft-hearted and did not have the ability to use thundering methods. If the servants were punished as well, someone would always feel resentful.

When Concubine Jia saw Ruyi being punished, she naturally stopped. If she had pushed too hard, the Emperor would have blamed her for their old friendship.

*Recently, most of the concubines in the harem have copied scriptures by hand and sent them to the master, hoping to do their bit to help the war.

Ruyi copied Buddhist scriptures day and night because the emperor ordered her to pray sincerely.

He also did everything himself, including making prayer flags to comfort those who had been injured or killed in the war.

Ruyi would often go to Anhua Hall in person, bringing prayer flags and written scriptures to give to the master for recitation.

Master Anji also admired Ruyi's sincerity, thinking that she was a kind and pure person who cared about the war situation and the suffering of the people.

The two of them would occasionally talk to each other. Master Anji admired Ruyi's detached attitude in her words. He knew in his heart that she was kind, and he also realized the wisdom hidden in her heart that transcended the ordinary.

*Aier, a maid in the Ice Room, received a string of Buddhist beads from Anji's disciple Anduo as a gift. This means that the Buddha Dharma is impartial and will bless all living beings.

*Qixiang Palace

Concubine Jia's spirits have improved recently. Zhenshu heard that everyone in the palace copied Buddhist scriptures and sent them to Anhua Hall, praying for the Buddha's mercy to bless all living beings.

Concubine Jia also copied some Buddhist scriptures and asked Zhenshu to send them to Anhua Hall for prayers.
